*Kenichi's POV*
Kenichi: "Good morning Sairenji"
Ignoring the surprised screams I greeted Sairenji normally, a part of me already knew that everyone was going to make a fuss about this, I just hope that the plot change ticket works.
While everyone screamed and looked at me in shock, I was able to identify several characters from different animes.
Of course the main cast of To Love-Ru was there, there was Rito, Sairenji, Momioka, Sawada and me, only Lala and Run were missing, as far as I remember Kotegawa was going to join our class in the second year.
I was a little surprised that in my class there were three other protagonists apart from Rito, there was Ichijou Raku from Nisekoi, Aki Tomoya from Saekano and Hashiba Junichi from Hajimete no Gal.
And apart from them there were most of the heroines and secondary characters of their respective stories, if I had to make a list it would be like this:
Nisekoi:
-Ichijou Raku
-Onodera Kosaki
-Miyamoto Ruri
-Shuu Maiko
----------------------------------------------------------
Saekano:
-Aki Tomoya
-Kato Megumi
-Sawamura Spencer Eriri
----------------------------------------------------------
Hajimete no Gal:
-Hashiba Junichi
-Yame Yukana
-Sakamoto Shinpei
-Kobayakawa Minoru
-Ishida Keigo
----------------------------------------------------------
Although it was not the complete cast of their respective stories, there were most of the characters that usually appeared, I have to admit that they were a large number, almost half of the class were only characters from different stories, and there were still several girls who were going to transfer in the future.
If there are only several characters in this class, then how many more will there be in the other classes.
Momioka: "E-Eh... W-Wait... Y-You're really Saruyama... T-That perverted monkey who always said perverted things and kept shouting that he wanted a girlfriend."
Kenichi: "It might be hard to believe, but it's me."
Sawada: "Y-You really expect us to believe that... N-Not only do you look very different... Even your personality changed."
I knew that all this was going to be a bother, I took a look and almost everyone was giving me weird looks, in fact, I could feel how some girls were disappointed, and how the contemptuous looks of the boys increased more and more, I even heard some muttering things.
Ishida: "Ha... So it's that monkey-looking boy... The other day I heard him telling that boy sitting in front of him that he desperately wanted a girlfriend... I see, I see, he was so desperate to get a girlfriend that he had an operation to change his appearance."
Sakamoto: "Well... Even though that sounds a bit pathetic, there is always a lack of people who do that kind of thing, we shouldn't judge them so much either..."
Kobayakawa: "As long as she's not a Loli I'm not interested"
Ishida / Sakamoto: "That's going to be your only dialogue!"
Listening to the comments of the perverted trio, the number of boys who insulted me while laughing increased more and more, even the girls looked at me as if they were disgusted, even Rito was looking at me strangely.
While all this was happening I noticed that despite the comments, there were several people who were not joining those who said those things, some were even completely disinterested.
Without caring about the opinion of those boys, I decided to continue talking to Momioka and Sawada.
Kenichi: "Actually it's me, it's just that these last few days I got caught up in a certain situation, and don't think I'll have surgery, I don't think there's any operation in the world that allows you to completely change your appearance in just two days."
When I said that it seemed like I was able to lighten the mood a bit.
Momioka: "But no matter how you look at it this is weird, where have you ever seen someone change so much in just two days out of nowhere?"
After hearing Momioka's question I decided to make use of the plot that changed.
Kenichi: "Well, that's a little hard to explain... But I guess the best way to understand it is because it was through genetics."
Momioka/Sawada: "Genetics!"
Kenichi: "Yes, this is a personal matter for my family... But apparently my family on my mother's side has a history related to martial arts, although I don't know it very well, I only learned from my mother when I was little that from time to time in our family individuals with abnormal bodies are born, at first I thought it was just a story that she made up, but unexpectedly these last few days I was training tirelessly and before I knew it I already had this appearance, even I was surprised myself."
I looked around slightly and noticed that the conversations everyone was having had stopped, for some reason everyone was listening to my story.
Kenichi: "You may find it strange that I've suddenly changed so much... But if I'm honest, I feel amazing, it's the first time in a long time that I feel so clear-headed, I was blank for quite a few years without a purpose, so it may be a bit late, but I want to be a better person... I found a goal that I want to achieve and that's why from now on I'm only going to keep improving, I have people I want to apologize to... And I also have several regrets from the past to resolve... That's why you can say whatever you want about me... But the only reality is that I am the one and only Saruyama Kenichi.
*Yukana's POV*
This can't be possible...
After yesterday's events, I haven't been able to get the image of that boy who defended Haruna-chan out of my head, since I got home, I could only think about him, since my childhood I have known several types of boys, but it was the first time I met someone like that, even my friend Dai turned out to be nothing more than a bastard.
I was so immersed in my memories that I couldn't even sleep, to distract myself I started talking to Ranko on the cell phone, I was telling him about what happened for several hours, but for some reason he got quite angry with me and cut me off. How much I would have liked to talk to him and ask for his number, but instead of that, I, the fool, ended up running away in my nervousness.
While I still couldn't get him out of my head I arrived at school, at first everything was normal, I simply arrived at class and greeted my friends Risa and Mio, both were the only friends I had in class apart from Haruna-chan, there were also other girls in other classes with styles similar to mine and I also got along well with them.
Momioka: "What's wrong Yukacchi, do you look a little depressed? Do you want me to grope your breasts? I'm sure that will cheer you up instantly"
Yukana: "Although I appreciate your attempts to cheer me up, I'm not in the mood to play right now... It turns out that yesterday I met an amazing boy who defeated some delinquents, ever since I saw him I haven't been able to get him out of my head"
Sawada: "Waa~ He was so handsome that he captivated our Yukana-chan"
Yukana: "Although it is true that he was quite attractive, it's not just that, he was completely different from any boy I've met in the past, do you remember that I told you that in high school I had a friend named Dai"
Momioka: "Ah... Now that I think about it you mentioned something about that, you said that he was a very handsome boy that you met in high school..."
Yukana: "Yeah, it turns out that I was completely wrong, in the end Dai-kun was not Nothing but a bastard, just yesterday I saw him and a group of delinquents, he and those boys were sexually harassing Haruna-chan in public"
Sawada: "Wait, when you say Haruna, you mean our Haruna"
Yukana: "Yes, it was her, those morons were trying to attack her on the street in front of the park near my house, from what I saw they surrounded her while she was walking her dog... But just when they were about to do something unpleasant to her, that handsome boy arrived, I swear you should have seen him, he made all those delinquents including Dai-kun piss themselves in fear"
Momioka: "Wow, that's serious."
Just as I was talking animatedly with Risa and Mio as we walked, suddenly a boy from our class dropped a magazine on the floor, and desperately threw himself on the ground to pick it up, but we could all see that it was clearly an erotic magazine, the boy desperately tried to say that it wasn't his, but seeing the huge difference between him and that boy from yesterday I couldn't help but step on his magazine and say some cold words to him while looking at him in disgust.
Yukana: "You know... Why don't you go look at these things at home while you're alone? You really are disgusting."
Junichi: "S-Sorry..."
The boy looked at me trembling while crying, it really was so scary.
The rest of the time I spent talking non-stop about yesterday with the girls, but while I was talking animatedly something happened that left me shocked and frozen in my seat.
It was him...
It was definitely him...
He had that same black hair with that hairstyle that made him look so attractive and that presence along with that penetrating gaze, he walked so calmly as if nothing in this world could affect him... But why is he here, did he just transfer to our class...
While I was lost in my fantasies, everyone started to wonder who he was, I even heard some of those perverted virgins throwing insults at him while whispering in a pathetic way.
A short time later Haruna-chan arrived, as soon as I saw her I felt uncomfortable, even if at that moment I felt embarrassed, I shouldn't have run away, at least I should have approached her to ask how she was. With renewed determination I decided to approach her to apologize to Haruna-chan and to be able to ask that boy his name.
Yukana: "Haruna-"
Haruna: "Good morning, Saruyama-kun"
...
...
...
I guess I wasn't the only one who froze when I heard that... Did I just hear wrong... What did Haruna-chan say...? Saruyama-kun? Where have I heard that name before?
If you ask me, the only one that comes to mind is that guy named Saruyama Kenichi that I met the other day, the one that had a monkey-like appearance, don't get me wrong, unlike those four disgusting perverted virgins that guy was a lot nicer, maybe he made some dirty jokes from time to time, but he never did anything like bring porn magazines or blatantly look at girls' bodies, it was obvious that unlike most he was a very nice guy, I even saw him several times trying to help one of his friends confess over the course of the week...
Wait... Now that I think about it... How come I didn't notice... Not only is his hairstyle similar to the one he had before, his eyes even though they are now half-closed are still the same as the last time I saw him, also that look he put on when he helped Haruna-chan, was the same one he had when he helped his friend.
Unlike me who for some reason felt calm, after all I was never one to judge people by their appearance, the rest of the boys started to make a fuss, they even started to insult him saying that he had surgery, are they stupid, how the hell can you get a body like that in such a short time with an operation and even if he had really had surgery he would still be resting with his body bandaged, besides it is impossible for him to have made a show of strength like yesterday with a fake body.
Despite all the comments he behaved completely normally, Kenichi-kun began to tell Risa and Mio the reason for his sudden change in appearance, and I have to say that I was quite surprised, although at first I was still doubtful of his explanation, but when he began to say that his life was blank without goals for several years or when he said that he wanted to be a better person to apologize I couldn't help but feel moved.
*Narrator's POV*
The will of the world, in itself, was not a living being, just as Kenichi concluded, this concept was quite similar to the concepts of Alaya and Gaia from the Type-Moon universe, it was like the representation of the world wanting to survive, it was like a super intelligent computer that partially predicted the future and only based its decisions accordingly with what best suited the world, in its calculation, human feelings did not matter at all, if people followed the stories or plots that the world prepared for them, it got closer and closer to its goal of preserving life.
But being a concept it had no physical form, so it could not intervene directly and could not manipulate the minds of the protagonists, they were protected by the concept of destiny and fortune, so the decision that the will of the world made was to influence the main and secondary characters, so, every time they had to make an important decision for their lives, the will of the world implanted doubts in their minds that made them always make the decision that best suited the world.
Upon concluding this, Kenichi did not want to take the same path as the will of the world, so when he changed the plot of his story he only wrote that it would be easier for people to believe him, at no time did he force them to unconditionally believe his words.
That's why most of the students believed and were moved when they heard how Kenichi wanted to improve as a person in order to achieve his goals. In his words they felt his sincerity. When they heard him, most of them couldn't help but remember their childhoods, those days when everything was simpler and they weren't trapped by the shackles called society. What child didn't say in their childhood that they wanted to be a hero in the future, or an astronaut, or even a president? But with the passage of time, children grow up and usually realize their limitations.
That's why at this moment Kenichi seemed dazzling. Unlike most people who just went with the flow, he had already decided what he wanted to do with his life and that's why he made an effort. His change in appearance was proof of his effort. At this point, no one could doubt his words.
*Kenichi's POV*
Kenichi: (I wonder what happened, by now the teacher should have arrived, she's already quite late)
After I explained the reason for my change it seems that everyone accepted it without any problem, although I still feel the discontent of most of the boys, honestly I didn't care much, instead the girls for some reason looked at me with happy smiles, especially Sairenji and Yame Yukana the Gal of the class, I remember that in the past when I was a pervert I talked to her, although it was just a casual conversation we got along quite well, unlike the other perverts she never looked at me with cold eyes or called me disgusting.
I couldn't help but sigh as I looked at Rito, this idiot was depressed because after Sairenji greeted me she completely forgot to greet him, this is one of the most annoying things about his personality, he doesn't have a shred of initiative, the whole time he just sat there like a doll waiting for her to greet him.
On the other hand this is a really abnormal class, although there aren't any characters from some action or fantasy story, several of the ones here have complicated backgrounds in their stories.
While I was lost in my thoughts I felt a gaze behind me, when I turned around I was shocked by what I saw.
Katō: "..."
For some reason the main heroine of the anime Saekano, Katō Megumi was staring at me intensely... Not to begin with...
Kenichi: (SHE WAS SITTING BEHIND ME THE WHOLE TIME...!!!)
Katō Megumi was a pretty cute girl, she had short dark brown hair, she also had eyes of a similar color to her hair and a body with perfect proportions, in that sense she was quite similar to Sairenji, she didn't have a body as explosive as other girls but she had it quite well proportioned, the only problem is that all that cute appearance was ruined by that emotionless expression.
From Saekano's story I already knew that she had a weak presence that was usually ignored, but I think this was over the top, not even with my enhanced instincts did I notice that she was sitting behind me, the only reason I was able to detect her was because I activated the enhanced danger sensor again, this no longer qualifies as having a low presence, this is definitely some kind of special ability.
When I looked back at her, she looked at me with her usual emotionless anime expression, but thanks to the danger sensor I could tell that she was somewhat surprised, it seems that she is so used to being ignored that she never thought that someone would look at her willingly.
Kenichi: "You are Katō Megumi, right?"
Although her expression hadn't changed I could tell that she was becoming more and more surprised.
Katō: "You're talking to me..."
Kenichi: "I don't know, you tell me, there's another Katō Megumi in this class"
Katō: "I don't think so"
Kenichi: "So, if I'm talking to you... To be honest, you surprised me quite a bit, you were sitting behind me the whole time since last week"
Katō: "Yeah, I've been sitting behind Saruyama-kun since the first day... You surprised me quite a bit too... Your appearance changed a lot, to the point that I couldn't recognize you at first"
If it weren't for the danger sensor, it would have been hard to believe that she was surprised, she looked almost like a doll, her facial expressions didn't change at all.
Kenichi: "If you say you didn't notice at first, that means you realized it was me before Sairenji greeted me."
Katō: "Yes, your appearance and personality may have changed, but your direct attitude hasn't changed. Ever since you entered the classroom, you never cared what others thought of you. In that sense, I don't think you've changed at all."
Wow, this girl might make me blush, I guess this is what you can expect from a main heroine, just like Sairenji who could recognize me by my gaze, she could also recognize me by a rather small detail that is usually not noticed by all people.
Kenichi: "I see... By the way Katō-san... Have you ever been told that you have talent to be an assassin?"
Katō: "Although I have been told, you are the first to say it so directly."
Kenichi: "I'm sorry about that... But it seems that my comments don't affect you much, that perhaps you are used to being ignored."
Katō: "Yes, although it doesn't affect me... I have to admit that it is quite annoying, since my childhood I have always had a low presence, that's why people always tend to ignore me, sometimes they even ignore me when I talk to them."
Kenichi: "Waaa... It seems that you have it pretty difficult... Although I am not the most suitable to comment, I have practically sat in front of you for a whole week and never noticed your presence... But that thing about having a low presence really is at such an extreme level."
Katō: "It is, sometimes it has reached the point that even the automatic doors of the stores do not open when I stand in front of them, In fact, the other day I was quietly having lunch on the rooftop and suddenly a couple came in and started confessing their love to each other and even kissed right in front of my face... That was really awkward..."
Kenichi: "..."
Wow, in the story they didn't go into much depth about that, but it seems like she's had it pretty rough. Now that I think about it, in the story of Saekano the protagonist Aki Tomoya during his entire first year never realized that Kato-san was his classmate.
N/A: (Although that was in the anime, because in the light novel they were both from different classes.)
Unexpectedly Katō-san was quite sentimental, her facial expression and voice didn't say anything, but in front of the danger sensor she was like an open book, I could feel all her emotions, surprise, anger, sadness, happiness, it was a completely new facet of her.
In the end we ended up getting along pretty well, we talked for quite a while, I think she was pretty happy, and of course, if everyone ignored her existence that meant she would never have friends other than the main characters of Saekano, while we were talking about our hobbies, for some strange reason I felt two intense looks coming from different directions, but since I was talking to Katō-san I decided to ignore them.
While we were talking animatedly, suddenly the door of the classroom opened, but the one who entered unexpectedly was not the teacher who was in charge of our class.
Instead it was a much younger woman, she was quite tall with long black hair, she also had disheveled bangs that slightly covered her gray eyes. For some strange reason she was wearing a lab coat over her work uniform: a black vest with a dress shirt underneath, black pants and a tie that she wore loose, in general she was a rather charming mature woman, to the point that she would not lose in appearance to any of the heroines.
I definitely knew her, and not just because she was a pretty famous teacher at this school, I also knew her because she was a pretty popular supporting character from another anime, her name was Hiratsuka Shizuka. The teacher from an anime called "Yahari Ore no Seishun Love Come wa Machigatteiru" (Oregairu), but from what I understand she's the modern Japanese teacher.
Why was she here instead of the teacher in charge of our class...?
Hiratsuka: "Well, shut up brats... I've come to inform you of something, as you already know from the opening day when the teachers introduced ourselves, my name is Hiratsuka Shizuka, I'm a modern Japanese teacher and I'm in charge of a second year class."
When she introduced herself, almost all the boys started making a scene. Although I'm not a pervert now, I understand them well. Hiratsuka-sensei is one of the most beautiful teachers in the school, and she also had a very good figure and was single.
Kenichi: (Now that I think about it, aside from the light novel, anime, and manga, Oregairu's story also had a game made as Galge, I remember that in that game there was also a route where the protagonist stayed with her, so she is much more important than a simple supporting character like me)
Hiratsuka: "Silence...! As I was saying, we were informed that Homada-sensei, the teacher in charge of your class had a tragic accident this weekend, she is currently hospitalized"
As she calmed everyone down with her words, she told us something quite shocking... Well, shocking only to some, classes just started a week ago, hopefully we had only seen that teacher a few times.
Haruna: "N-No way...! Hiratsuka-sensei, how is Homada-sensei?"
Hearing Sairenji say that she was one of the few girls who was worried, Hiratsuka-sensei smiled slightly seeing that there was a girl with such a good personality in this class.
Hiratsuka: "Don't worry, we've been informed that she's out of danger... The problem is that she won't be able to teach again for a very long time, so the school decided to assign a new teacher to be in charge of this class... Hey, what are you waiting for, come in."
When Hiratsuka-sensei said that, the classroom door slowly opened as everyone fell silent...
